Maintenance & Warranty

Ensure air valve is in place & screwed in tightly before entering the water and rinse off after use. (Always leave it closed unless flying or leaving it in hot places)

Always SUP in safe conditions, KNOW YOUR LIMITS.

Start out on flat water (e.g. dam/canal) until you are ready for the sea.

FINS & FIN BOX:

To install your centre box fin, remove the screw from the aluminium plate and slide the plate into the box.

Set the fin into the box and depress it flush to the deck using the brass pin protruding from the sides to slide it into the track.

Once the fin is secured, slide the fin plate back to align both the fin hole and the hole in the plate.

You can now place your screw into both holes and tighten with a flat head screwdriver.

GOLDEN RULES:

The simplest rule is to treat your board well and you will have a long and happy life together!

DONT COOK IT! Always keep your board in a shaded area when not in use.

Check your vent plug periodically to see if it’s secured tightly and clear of sand or debris that could block the venting.

Never store a board in direct sunlight for extended periods.

Always store boards in the shade and on a rail.

If a board is stored in a bag, never leave it in direct sunlight – it will get 30% hotter inside a bag –

it is recommended to leave it in the shade with the zipper partially open.

Always keep your fin box free and clear of sand and debris.

Board bags are recommended to keep your board safe & sound.

Roof pads are recommended for transportation to avoid damage to the board and vehicle.
